Stress–Strain Simulator (Tensile Forces)

In this simulation, the object is undergoing tension (tensile forces pulling it apart). Choose a material, a loading rate, and a stress level, then run the iterations to see deformation and (sometimes) failure.

Photo mode: the ellipse is filled by a real photo texture (ice or silly putty) clipped to the current shape. Green dots are the four points. “Broken” shows fracture under tension.
